we chose this cruise at the last minute,two weeks before the cruise because of the price. the embarkation went very quick. the sail away was on time.there was a lot of kids on this cruise,of course the parents just let them run wild all over the ship.they take kids to shows that they should not take them to,the comedians even committed about it. parents PLEASE KEEP your kids out of the hot tubs. the show six was horrible,that is an hour of my life i cant get back. burn the floor was very good. the food in the restaurants was very good.the ship seemed over crowded.the weather was not the best the fist couple of days,but it got a little better from jamaica on.I was not crazy about the cruise director paquito,potato or whatever his name was.your cruise director needs to be able to speak very clear english. alot of older people were having some difficulty understanding him.the staff was very friendly.the captain was one of the best we have had he was very friendly and talkative. overall the cruise was good and we will keep cruising with NCL,just not in a inside room any more.
